Welcome to the Advanced Features Tutorial section of our API Documentation. Here, we delve into the more intricate and powerful aspects of our API that can help you achieve complex tasks with ease.

Overview

Advanced features are designed for users who have a solid understanding of our API and are looking to expand their capabilities. These features include:

  • Custom Authentication: Implement custom authentication methods to secure your API endpoints.
  • Batch Processing: Process multiple requests in a single API call for efficiency.
  • Data Validation: Validate incoming data against predefined rules to ensure data integrity.
  • Caching: Improve performance by caching frequently accessed data.

Custom Authentication

Custom authentication allows you to implement your own authentication logic, providing more control over who can access your API endpoints.

  • Token-based Authentication: Use tokens to authenticate users.
  • OAuth 2.0: Implement OAuth 2.0 for secure API access.
  • JWT (JSON Web Tokens): Utilize JWT for stateless authentication.

Token-based Authentication

To set up token-based authentication, follow these steps:

  1. Generate a token using our Token Generator.
  2. Include the token in the Authorization header of your API requests.

For more detailed instructions, check out our Token-based Authentication Guide.

Batch Processing

Batch processing enables you to send multiple requests in a single call, reducing the number of API calls and improving efficiency.

  • Batch API Calls: Send multiple requests in a single API call.
  • Batch Request Format: Learn the format for sending batch requests.

To get started with batch processing, refer to our Batch Processing Guide.

Data Validation

Data validation ensures that the data you receive from your API is accurate and meets your requirements.

  • Validation Rules: Define validation rules for incoming data.
  • Custom Validation: Implement custom validation logic.

For more information on data validation, visit our Data Validation Guide.

Caching

Caching can significantly improve the performance of your API by storing frequently accessed data.

  • In-memory Caching: Use in-memory caching for fast data retrieval.
  • Cache Expiration: Set cache expiration to ensure data freshness.

Learn more about caching in our Caching Guide.

Conclusion

Exploring these advanced features can help you harness the full potential of our API. Remember to consult our full API documentation for more information and examples.
